Rina, Jabon De Lavar "Lava, Limpia, Dura Mas" 200 gr. Photography by the Douglas M. Parker Studio, Los Angeles, California November 8, 2004
2005
This dye transfer color print by Christopher Williams presents a meticulous, studio-quality photograph of a bar of "Rina" laundry soap, its packaging bearing the Spanish slogan "Lava, Limpia, Dura Más" (Washes, Cleans, Lasts Longer). The work, executed by the Douglas M. Parker Studio in Los Angeles, exemplifies Williams's conceptual approach of using the conventions of commercial and industrial photography to interrogate systems of representation, production, and circulation. By foregrounding the credit of the photography studio in the title itself, Williams draws attention to the constructed and collaborative nature of image-making.
